Everything else

Favorites, Classics, Maybes, Bro-op, Franchise 1, Franchise 2, Humble Bundle, Uninstalled.

Favorites for currently playing, Classics for biennial replays / uninstalled games i love, Maybes are for games i'll reinstall every once in a blue moon for a bit of a replay, Bro-op is self explanatory, Humble Bundle is just storage for new / cheap games i happen across but have yet to play / categorize, Star Wars and Warhammer get their own subcategories because they've got an assload of games i generally love but some i don't but are worth categorizing together, uninstalled are shit games i have no plan on ever installing / replaying again.

>Favorites
Only the most frequently played shit at a given moment.

>Alpha
For games I frequent enough to not have to scroll down and search for. Also games I'm currently playing through. Named as such for steam to sort the category near the top.

>Backlog
Games waiting for me to start playing them.

>Longlog
Games I'd like to play before I die but have no fucking patience to. Will likely only play these if I find myself without internet or on my laptop during a long trip. I probably won't play most of these before I die.

Sequels to games still in my backlog.

son I have plenty of games, and I don't need to organise them.

When I figure out which game I want to play, i literally just open steam and start typing the letters and it goes to it in the library.

JUST

>>382433540
I never know which game I want to play though, I look at steam to see what I could play most of the time.

>>382433540
That's counter intuitive.

If they were organized you could scroll through and narrow down the catagories and chose a game that way.

The "When I figure out" part is what takes the time. You say you have 3k games, like fuck you know all of them and can just pick one out. You probably spend more time thinking of which game to play than actually playing it.

>>382433602
..at one point they weren't.

So not only did I
>have 300 games that need sorted and you only play about 3 of them at a given time.
I had 3 times that you dumb cunt.

I was in that position, so telling me to "come back when.." I already know. far better than you do.

>>382433712
If I put them into categories then I just have massive genre categories to stare at; it barely resolves the problem.

The way I find the game I want to play is I look at games that have interested me in the past, that i've been recommended, or that I have been wanting to play for a while. Alternatively, I can go on somewhere like steamdb or steamspy and just sort by rating or number of players to see if there are high-quality games i own that I haven't experienced yet.

Then, when I want to find said game, I'll type the letters to go to it and launch it quickly instead of having to do gay scrolling ilke some kind of fucking GUI faggot who can't install Gentoo.

If I want something quick I can type in a bit of the name in the search bar. That's what the search bar is for ffs.

"games" and "hidden"

>>382433896
That's why you do this>>382433405 you ding dong. Sorting shit into genres is stupid. It doesn't solve anything.

>>382434268
So.... you didn't do anything because Steam already does that?

I once made the mistake of trying to categorise them (probably to fit in on /v/ or whatever) but it has only become a bother. Removing the categories is too much work so I'm fucked. Usually I just check Installed and find the newest games at the bottom with the uncategorised.

>Buyer's Remorse
For games that I've played enough of to know they're not worth continuing
>Endless
For roguelikes, roguelites, arcade games etc
>Impulse Buys
For leftovers from bundles
>Multiplayer
Self-explanatory
>Play These
For singleplayer finite games that I've not finished or not started
>Played
For singleplayed finite games that I have finished

Not categorizing games leads to forgetting about games you haven't beaten or may one day replay and you'll just let /v/;and other social media remind you those games even exist.

they re-released it cause a shitty game needed to be released twice I guess. I think it might have been a graphical update or something.

Some people think that game was good. I am not sure why.

>Man, you fall for hype a lot don't you?
I didn't spend more than £5 on anything in the list. But I did pre-order Phantom Pain, so yes.

>>382436095
TR 2013 is too much killing, not enough tomb raiding. I played it right after Anniversary and Underworld, and it was practically a different franchise.
